But maneuverability is only part of the story. Because the STARR is a tractor and trailer configuration, trailers can be disconnected when full and the tractor simply hooked to an empty trailer so the operator can continue on his route. The trailer serves as a mini-transfer station in this way, and full trailers can be pulled as doubles to the landfill with non-route trucks.
The STARR® loader is the proven Rapid Rail® system – fast, efficient and dependable, with an 8-foot reach and Operate-In-Gear-At-Idle hydraulics.
The STARR™ System is revolutionizing the way refuse is collected in neighborhoods across the country, while solving the problem of ever increasing distances to landfills.
